spalted pecan jr gent

[guts]

This is some of the wood I stabilized in m/w poly,wood was kinda punky and wormy but turned pretty good.

Very nice looking pecan,love the colors.
looks like you did a super job
of stabilizing and turning it.
CA finish(I'm guessing)makes that wood
look a mile deep.[]

John,you got the finish right and thanks for the kind words.

Thanks again and tell Norma hello

Nice job Bill, gives me hope for stabilizing some really punky and wormy Eucalyptus. Love that CA finish also.

Nice pen Bill. At some point I'd like to learn to stabilize wood. What is m/w poly? I assume that means Minwax. Correct?

Brian,minwax is right,I use the quick dry diluted with mineral spirits,about 50/50.

Boy, from the highlight at the end you can tell the finish is very nice. Excellant workmanship.
